Amidst rumours that Deepika Padukone alone will helm Padmavati promotions, sources say Singh is to kick-start them later this month
After continuous opposition by several religious groups, and now BJP, on the pretext of Sanjay Leela Bhansali portraying factually incorrect history, it was believed that Ranveer Singh, who plays Alauddin Khilji in Padmavati, wouldn't promote the project to avoid fanning negativity. So far, the film's leading lady Deepika Padukone has been promoting the project. Now, insiders suggest that Singh will take charge of the promotions this month.

"The makers didn't want the promotions to be overshadowed by the hard-liners' hatred towards Khilji. So, it was decided that Ranveer would only promote the movie after it hits screens. But the marketing team has changed its decision now," says a source.
The actor will wrap up his brand shoots before getting on with the promotions. "He will travel to London and Los Angeles, and return in a couple of days. He starts promoting the film from November 12 with a cinema summit. He will talk about his character for the first time," says a source close to the actor.
